            QFT. Comes with a chip, though.

            Plus, they sell a piggyback dealy-o that allows far better tuning anyway.

              So it's 20hp on top of stock hp, not on top of chipped hp. So it's maybe a 10hp gain if you already have a chip. I guess the difference would be where the power is gained, and if that is peak or average gain. I really find it hard to believe these things are worth the money without extensive head work. At least the price is more reasonable then anyone else with a MAF conversion kit.

                  Bad news though...their sale ended, now back up to about $500 for the MAF kit.

                  Fuck that...500 bones for 20HP? Another 500 for a piggyback? No thanks.

                    I'm more interested in the improved throttle response and lack of AFM quirks, than I am big HP gains.

                      these guys are just across the border from me... I'm thinking I might end up bringing my car up there eventually to have it tuned properly.

                      and I don't get why all you guys have such poor throttle response with the AFM. you all must have some nasty vaccuum leaks or something.. not that I don't want to ditch the barn door myself :D

                        It's not that mine's terrible, it's just when I drive an M50 car (Or something more modern) it totally spoils me.
